Section spacing
Hi, after making edits, it is strongly advised to watch recent changes whether they are accepted with corrections, and then learn and apply those in subsequent similar edits. In the case of your areas additions, we generally keep an empty line above each section header for readability, so I already had to add a whole bunch of those today. Please do adopt this good practice going forward. --Xymph (talk) 15:34, 11 September 2023 (CDT)
 * Are you going to be the kind of wiki contributor who just fires and forgets, leaving it to others to mop up behind you, or could you follow advice and learn to improve your edits? I'm starting to wonder... --Xymph (talk) 13:25, 12 September 2023 (CDT)
 * Unfortunately, your latest round of edits make it clear that you're wilfully not listening to what we're telling you. Since repeated warnings and edit summaries aren't working, I'm beginning to think a block may be in order here. Gauss (talk) 17:44, 12 September 2023 (CDT)

Sorry, I don’t edit very much and didn’t know this was a thing until I got bored and started looking around I didn’t know. Probably should’ve knew to add spacing to it considering other areas had it. How do I make this also? 13 September 2023 17:32 (CDT)
 * Thank you for finally waking up to your talk page. :) How did you miss the orange alert bar earlier? When adding a new section, simply add an empty line above each section header. Also, see the guidelines for more advice, including how to properly sign talk posts. --Xymph (talk) 02:11, 14 September 2023 (CDT)

Definition lists
Please follow the example on my fixes if you add any more location lists for Doom 3 maps - using the ; / : syntax without balancing each item to start with a semicolon (term) followed by one or more definitions (list item) actually generates invalid HTML, so we do not use those in main space articles except for things that can be formatted as such (for example the objectives list). --Quasar (talk) 04:18, 17 September 2023 (CDT)


 * I had zero clue what you were talking about until I looked at it in the editing screen itself, and is there a minimum for when you break the list in half? NewsReporter (talk) 10:02, 17 September 2023 (CDT)


 * I was just going by feel on that. When they're too long it becomes hard for the user to scroll past to the rest of the content, so we do that for things like lists of music and maps and other things frequently as well. I'd say probably if you cannot see the next section on screen w/o scrolling, it's better to add a break somewhere. --Quasar (talk) 11:15, 17 September 2023 (CDT)

I’ll probably stop doing those edits, as I’ll probably just mess it up again. If you want to make the edits, I already wrote the areas list a while back on Fandom for Exis sectors 1 and 2, and Hell Outpost. And one question, is there any way to upload a video from photos to here? I’m on an IPhone, and I’ve recently discovered a glitch you might be interested in.

 * It's appreciated that you've come here to contribute to the main community wiki, and just because your edits need polishing doesn't mean you should stop. This happens to most new contributors and the idea is that you learn from the fixes so you can improve your work. Referring us to the commercial, non-community wiki that we happily left behind in the rear-view mirror long ago isn't appreciated though; regulars here just ignore it and don't go out to copy stuff from there to here. --Xymph (talk) 16:39, 25 September 2023 (CDT)
